#71 of 78 Passenger doors will not open Explorer 1997 by leon706 May 10, 2008 (12:01 pm)
The passenger doors will not open from the inside. The child locks are off and I have replaced the inside door handle. For some reason only the inside bar is not raising the door mechanisms to open the door. Anybody got a fix for this or can tell me how much it cost to have repaired? The problem is not with the handle itself. Replies to this message: travisw (Jun 07, 2008 3:01 pm)

#74 of 78 electronic lock problem by bbelasco Jul 14, 2008 (5:53 am)
98 exp xlt door lock switch will not lock, just open both pass and driver side. Switch in hatch locks and opens   When I bought the car used, the remote would open but not lock the doors. The alarm system thinks it is locked because you could arm it just by pressing the lock button. I would lock the doors by pressing the switch on either door. Recently, both switches will now only open, they will not lock, but the switch in the hatch still locks and opens the doors. The touch pad on the drives door also will open just the drivers door as it should, and all the doors when 3/4 is pressed. It cannot be used to lock the car, but will activate the alarm if you enter the code and it thinks you are locking it. I changed all 4 relays in the back, no help. All fuses are ok.

#75 of 78 Doors will not open by onslaut Aug 19, 2008 (6:27 pm)
I have a1999 Mercury Mountaineer and both front doors will not open. The driver door outside handle broke off months ago but I was still able to open it from inside. Now the inside handle does not feel like it is hooked up to any linkage. The passenger door feels like the door lock is jammed. Is there any way of opening either door and any idea what the parts would cost. I am a heavy equipment/diesel technician so I can do the work myself. Please help before I have to get my torch or my big hammer out!

Replying to: lilron1976 (Mar 17, 2009 7:12 pm) No, and it is still driving me nuts. Here is what I have done..   Changed all the lock relays-4- (they are in the back storage area, driver side)   Checked the wiring between the door and the fuse box. looking for a frayed and/or broken wire. Did not see any - this seemed to be a common problem that would fix the situation.   Check the connections to the door control panel, all were ok. Sorry, please let me know if you find the fix. Thanks...bob
